At The Edge Of Life

At The Edge Of Life

 

 

I had a very small circle

Of friends that I saw

And I hid like a turtle

When more were involved

 

I only went out at night

Hoping none would see

The degree of my fright

And the extent of my suffering

 

I could not smile at all

At anything in life

And I could not recall

When life had satisfied

 

I sometimes cried a tear

And was very depressed

And I was trapped by my fears

With no means of egress

 

I had thought of suicide

But I prayed like never before

And God helped me realize

He had more for me in store
